Drawing on the resourcefulness of yesteryear, making spaces productive places

Fenton Avenue

Our brief for this residential project was to design and install a series of purpose built planters in keeping with the architectural features of this newly built home. An internal courtyard was a clever feature allowing a perfect spot for vegies and herbs to thrive protected from the salt air and sea breezes.

Once the heavy lifting was done, planters were arranged in the internal courtyard ready to be planted out

For this busy family we used Blackbutt timbers to create a variety of self watering planters for citrus, herbs and climbers. These pictures were taken during installation, but we’ll be back to take more as the garden grows!

Before: Installation complete and planting out the garden

“Thanks Justine and The Victory Gardens Team for helping us realise the vision we had for our internal herb/veggie garden in our house. We really wanted planters combined with seating that fitted into the contemporary nature of our new build and you guys delivered the brief completely. Can’t thank you enough!”

After: 3 months down the track and the courtyard is abundant with lemongrass, thyme, basil, citrus, tomatoes to name a few!
